First Starbucks Experience

I had my very first Starbucks on a trip to Seattle to visit my Aunt Mel, Uncle Franks and -cousins. I was on a father -daughter trip. It was such a special trip to me for the memories I made with my Dad were wonderful. More of those later.

My Aunt Mel had take my cousin and I to the mall given us some spending money and set us free. My cousin Colleen had asked me if I had ever had a frappunico? I replied no, she giggled and we were off for my very first one. She ordered it for me, she got me a Venti of course!!


Well a venti frappunico later and no food on my tummy and I am sure you can guess the rest.

I will never forget that memory, or how my cousin Colleen laughed as I turned green.

Some 20 years later, I am no longer getting sick off venti frappunicos, however I am still hooked.

It's holiday time so I am treating myself these days to a Grande, lowfat, No whip, White Mocha Peppermint Mocha with Chocolate topping. Yummy-E!!

What is your Starbucks Story???

  1. Starbucks has a lot to answer for. Your Aunt hooked me on pumpkin the last time I was there near the holiday. No I wander in search of a pumpkin latte. We just left Gloria Jeans and I did get a decent White Chocolate Mocha latte. I can only hope that eggnog and peppermint will put in an appearance nearer to Christmas. lol!

    We did leave with a bottle of vanilla and a bottle of Irish Cream for use with my cappacino maker.

    Love you

  2. I don't remember the first time I had starbucks, but I'm pretty sure it was my dad's doing. And for me it's gotta be a White Peppermint Mocha and a pumpkin scone. :)
